Where does the bug appear (feature/product)? Cursor IDE Describe the Bug In the new UI, branch handling can be very confusing. Here is my buggy state: (see screenshots) As you can see the UI is stuck on the wrong branch and is not picking up the existing PR either when it should. Steps to Reprod…

Hi Alexandros! This is a known bug in the Glass layout. The branch label in the diff header shows a stored snapshot from when the conversation was created, rather than the live git branch, so it doesn’t update when you or the agent switches branches externally. The PR detection has the same root ca…

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)? Cursor IDE Describe the Bug The Cursor UI showed the wrong active Git branch in the status bar (displayed main) while the repository was actually checked out on staging. Integrated terminal output from Git matched staging (git branch --show-current, git …

Any update on this? It kind of defeats the purpose of the Glass UI, since one has to use other tools to inspect the PR.

Any update on this? The problem is getting more serious right now. I was running several worktrees but it suddenly all become the base project. The terminals was lost.

Yeah, same here. It works fine with a single task/PR, but when parallelizing work with multiple worktrees the whole UI is stale: branches, PRs, and the “stage” (commit/push/create PR/merge button). Unfortunately, It defeats the whole purpose of the worktrees.

The stale branch label, PR detection, and stage button issues you’re describing are all tracked. @Petr_Chmelar – your report (status bar showing main instead of staging, fixed by restart) is the sa…

Upgraded Cursor to Version: 3.2.16, the behaviour is changed , but it become totally useless for worktree. Step to reproduce git worktree add ../worktree-my-project/issue_num branch Copy the worktree path Press Open Workspace with the worktree path, type the prompt and run Plan mode. In the side …

I guess that it is assumed worktrees are created within the UI and in their custom folder, etc. In general Glass owns all git ops.

@benlau — thanks for the detailed repro steps and version info. What you’re describing (external worktree merging back into the base project in the sidebar) is a different issue from the stale branch label bug in this thread. External worktree handling is being reworked separately. Could you post t…
